Hi Helen, I have a cat that I got at 2, she is now 5. I got her to catch mice in my kennel. She has a heated pad in a crate to sleep in. I have not seen one dead mouse this winter, nor have I seen her except when I put her food down. I think your cat is normal or related to mine.

She is on the bed 24/7. Should I do anything? Does this mean her time is short? Never had cats...never had old cats. Worried. helenfranklin520@xxxxxxx Thanks. ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2011.
